There is a user forum for Filezilla Server at
https://forum.filezilla-project.org/viewforum.php?f=6&sid=3e59f8f5ed4ff484e3590f9bebfd8dd6
I have FileZilla Server running locally. If I wanted internet access, I would start with the FileZilla documentation:

The key to making any LAN resource available from the internet is for the Orbi router WAN port to have a public IP address. Open one of the "what is my IP?" web sites and compare the IP address that it reports with the IP address shown in the Orbi web interface, Advanced Tab home page: Internet Port. If they are different, that is a problem.
